For 2012, the Nissan Titan full-size pickup gets only a few changes from the 2011 model. The SV model gets a new Sport Appearance Package that includes 20-inch wheels, a 3.36 axle ratio, an 8-way power-adjustable driver seat, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, Bluetooth, fog lamps and a number of other interior and exterior trim details.

Starting under $30,000, the Titan features a 5.6L V8 engine that makes 317 hp and 385 ft-lb of torque. Hauling capacity includes a 2,000-lb payload and 9,500-lb tow rating. Titans offer seating for up to six adults in comfort, and the big truck returns 13 mpg city, 18 mpg on the highway for the 2-wheel drive model.
